“He lowered his hood, shook out a long mane of grizzled, dark grey hair (...) Every inch of skin seemed to be scarred. The mouth looked like a diagonal gash, and a large chunk of nose was missing. But it was the man’s eyes that made him frightening.” J.K.Rowling, "HP And The Goblet of Fire"

had motivated me to upload here a VERY old HP-illustration of mine I have chosen the pencil version not only because I like it better, but also to please a pencil-fan *sanzo-sinclaire

Now to the picture. I mostly liked the movies based upon the books, but several things I disapprove. The appearance of Alastor Moody is one of them. The image, created in movies, have nothing to do with the text I quoted. He had long dark-grey hair (not blond), his face was all heavily scarred, and he was _frightening_, not funny...

WOW this looks really impressive!!!! and creepy..he would be one..creepy scary teacher ...i would be scared of this man.but wow.nice one indeed!!you should do your vertion of snape next ehh..*wink wink*

Just like how Sirus was supposed to be like a father to harry, and the last freaking quest DID NOT INVOLVE (CENSORED)ING FOG! Oh, it's foggy in the maze, how can we ever face it with our magical powers?!

When reading the book I imagined Moody as scary as this only the face was more round in my mind, but the impression is the same ^^ too bad they have changed his appearance in the movie (I haven't seen it)

Wow !! This is amazing ... I mean not the way he looks like because he's very scary but all details you put there !! Really great. I'm really happy your friend motivated you to upload this pic ! I fits better the description of J. K. Rowling than the actor they chose for the movie. Excellent job !

Well... I liked the first three books very much, the fourth was also very interecting to me. The fifth was not interesting, the sixth I have read only because I wanted to know how the saga will end. The seventh was - well - not as bad as I feared I liked some things about it.

So I can't say that I'm a fan - though, I did read all of them

Moody would be one of my favorite, if he had more appearences in books. "Constant vigilance" has long been my device And the book is written in a way, that leaves very small chance to avoid liking Snape

Hmm, believe it or not, I was not so impressed by Snape's story. Maybe because I was too spoiled about the story or I had suspected it, I wasn't moved at his death. Whereas, I cried so much for Itachi. Many fans say there are many similarities between them. Something like this! [link]

I was sad about Moody's death. So quickly, in just one line they announce his death and they move on. Too many deaths in the 7th book...
